Can heart stent patients go home in 6 hours?
NCT ID NCT07830784
First seen Sep 21, 2026 · Last updated Sep 21, 2026
Summary
Researchers test whether adults with chronic coronary artery disease can safely go home within 6 hours after a successful elective transradial heart stent procedure, compared with the usual overnight hospital stay. The trial enrolls 58 adults at a Brazilian public hospital and follows them with a telemedicine check-in at 7 days. The main measure is a composite of serious events such as death, heart attack, stroke, repeat procedures, readmission, or major bleeding.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- same-day discharge with telemedicine follow-up after a heart stent procedure
- What this could lead to
- If it works, same-day discharge could let some heart stent patients avoid an overnight hospital stay and recover at home.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small pilot trial at one center, so the results may not apply broadly. Going home early carries a small risk that a complication appears after discharge.
